It is hard to shake the numbness that I and members of my family and community feel as a result of the unthinkable hate crime which took place in Pittsburgh on Saturday. We are sadly reminded that antisemitism is a force that we may always have to combat and live with, but that we should never succumb to.

The 11 victims of the Tree of Life massacre were our brothers and sisters, not just within our community, but to the world. Their life stories exemplify their love for humanity, their love for their community, their love of their their faith, as well as exemplifying the strength of overcoming unimaginable adversity to lead exceptional lives.

Saturday’s attack was an attack on all people and on the freedom’s, religious and otherwise, that we as a society value above all else. My hope for my children and grandchildren is that our community can find a way to heal, forgive and learn from this tragedy so that the incredible lives that we lost, and the deep pain and sorrow this has caused so many, will not be in vain and lead to a more harmonious and tolerant world in the future.

Join us as we challenge ourselves and our partners to raise millions to rebuild the star of Puerto Rico

As you know, Puerto Rico has been devastated by Hurricane Maria. This storm has gone down as the most powerful hurricane that has hit Puerto Rico in over 80 years. Many of you may not be aware, however, that in addition to our senior care business, CareOne, I have built a number of successful businesses over the years. One of those companies, Innovacare, is based in Puerto Rico and is a sizable contributor to the portfolio of companies that I run as a part of our family business and which employs over two thousand people. I consider these employees a part of our family, and I ask that you do the same. Innovacare, like CareOne, Partners and Ascend, is in the business of caring for people and provides health insurance to over 500,000 Puerto Rican citizens.

CareOne President and CEO Daniel Straus, CareOne Executive Vice President Elizabeth Straus, and RWJBarnabas Health President and Chief Executive Officer Barry H. Ostrowsky met this week to celebrate CareOne’s commitment to the RWJBarnabas Health Foundation and to announce their partnership in care throughout New Jersey. Fort Lee-based CareOne operates 32 post acute care, assisted living, and long term acute care hospitals throughout New Jersey, many which operate in the same communities as RWJBarnabas Health’s 11 acute care medical centers.

As talk swirls about repealing and replacing Obamacare, President Trump must train his focus on the fundamental error of the ACA, which is the shift in patient care decision-making away from frontline physicians and toward hospitals and insurance companies. Health insurance for everyone is important; however if it comes at the expense of providing quality healthcare to everyone, it is at best a pyrrhic victory. Hospitals are the most expensive and many times inefficient venue for the delivery of care and have contributed to rising costs while also failing to improve the quality of patient care.

CareOne communities throughout New Jersey are celebrating National Assisted Living Week (NALW) in earnest this week, September 10 – 16, with a full calendar of entertainment, educational and open house activities.
